A member asked:
Can too much ear wax cause vertigo?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: If the ear wax is so heavy that it clogs the external canal, mild symptoms might ensue, but you describe upper respiratory symptoms, and this makes me wonder if your eustachian tube is inflamed. Check with your doctor.
